is dx10 exclusive to vista? or will it work with xp?

[Keltik THC]

just about to get my first dx10 graphics card... although im not sure if dx10 will run with XP?? ive heard rumours dx10 will only work with vista?

can anyone confirm?

surely microsoft wouldnt force me to spend another £150 just to have dx10....

Surely you are not that ignorant?

i was being sarcastic, guess it doesnt come over well on forums!

its just i already have Vista and XP on other computers and i actually prefer XP...

guess ill just see what everything runs like with dx9 and XP when i get my new rig and then think about getting Vista for it... not really enthusiastic about spending that much money on something that might not be much benefit... but then agaisn i have spent a lot of money getting a DX10 card (280 GTX) in the first place.
